"Allow relative date formatting" / gitlens.defaultDateStyle not working

[drujd]

Description

The "Allow relative date formatting" checkbox / gitlens.defaultDateStyle setting does not seem to do anything at all. I have tried both current release and prerelease versions of GitLens and regardless of version, dates are always displayed in the relative format in both commit graph and commit detail with no option to change that.

GitLens Version

14.8.2 and 2024.2.1704

The Commit Graph has its own date style setting gitlens.graph.dateStyle to allow you to control the behavior there. In tomorrow's pre-release I've changed the default of that setting to fallback to gitlens.defaultDateStyle if not specifically specified.

As for the Commit Details view -- we are not currently honoring that setting and should be.

And where IS it used, then?

Verified in the 14.9 release.
